One of the out-patient rehab alternatives for individuals in Magdalena who are struggling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed clinics and doctors are certified to give certain meds to opioid addicted people, many that are opioids themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the user doesn't experience high feelings but also does not experience acute cravings and isn't in opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first med administered for this purpose, but there are other choices currently to pick from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to dispense the med, which is taken daily as a pill or liquid. The cost of the med is around under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be dispensed in structured medical centers, Buprenorphine can be and is prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The monthly cost of buprenorphine is about $300.00 /month for the generic of the drug. There is also a version of buprenorphine containing the drug naloxone, that is a med which blocks the effects of opioids. An individual consuming this version of the drug, AKA Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It too is taken daily, and costs approximately $450 a month. Naltrexone is another medication taken in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it's an opiate blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly shot, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from getting high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
